Mystery at the Marvin

The Marvin House is delighted to present, “Mystery at the Marvin”!

You’re invited to take part in solving an original, interactive mystery while helping Jamestown’s Elizabeth Warner Marvin Community House celebrate its 75th anniversary of service to the community. The “Mystery at the Marvin” will begin at 7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, October 3 and 4, at the historic home located at 2 W. Fifth Street, Jamestown.

The October mystery will transport guests back to 1951 as they watch and interact with the cast and crew of a live radio broadcast featuring music, commercial announcements, and an episode of a continuing mystery saga. Intrigue will play out before, after, and during the broadcast to prepare the audience to solve a crime revealed during the evening’s event.

“Mystery at the Marvin House” will feature several performers who have been involved in the longest continuous mysteries in the Jamestown area as well as others with notable theatrical experience. Nelson Garifi will serve as the chief inspector with the cast including Jade Barber, Emily Blackwood, Karen Piazza Buck, David Niles, Julia Niles, Steve Riczker, and Dennis Webster with Cathy Gagliano as accompanist.

“We’re delighted to host this mystery as part of a series of events celebrating the 75th anniversary of the Marvin House,” said June Diethrick, Trustee. “The Marvin House is a well-respected community landmark and gathering place, and we’re hoping that the event will encourage guests to explore the building and its history while enjoying a unique evening of entertainment.”
